3 | 153, 2538 |
3 | 51, 846 |
17, 282 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 3 x 17 x 282 = 43146
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/43146
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 623/153,2555/2538 is 7/43146
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 153,2538 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(153,2538) = 9
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(153,2538) x common factors =9 x 1 = 9
LCM(153,2538) = ( 153 × 2538 ) / 9
LCM(153,2538) = 388314 / 9
LCM(153,2538) = 43146
